Steam: The most popular games in 2020 at a glance

The 2020 balance is therefore all the more interesting. The ranking results from the number of positive Steam reviews; in detail, these change hourly, but can always be seen on the product page. This results in the following best list:

1. Hades
2. Factorio
3. Plasmophobia
4. Helltaker
5. Half-Life: Alyx
6. The Henry Stickmin Collection
7. Risk of Rain 2
8. Deep Rock Galactic
9. Persona 4 Golden
10. Satisfactory

Sometimes quite well-known names are thus included, but with the exception of Half-Life, these are exclusively indie titles. Für die Gaming-Szene ist das eine gute Aussage, da es beweist, dass hochwertige Titel nicht unbedingt ein großes Studio und riesige Geldmengen benötigen.
